Rivers Cuomo continues to milk Pinkerton — you know, the album that he used to hate

Do you wonder what Rivers Cuomo was thinking about during the creation of Weezer’s Pinkerton? Do you find yourself curious about what types of papers Cuomo wrote while in school between 94-97? Are you such a freak about Weezer’s landmark sophomore album that you’ll buy anything with the word “Pinkerton” on it? Then Cuomo has the book for you.

Hot on the heels of last year’s reissue of 1996’s Pinkerton, a new book, titled The Pinkerton Diaries, has now been confirmed by Cuomo himself (via video) to finally see release in March. The book, announced last fall and originally scheduled for consumption in January, is described by Cuomo as “a collection of all my journals, emails, letters, photos, school papers — everything from those years ‘94-‘97, so you get an inside look as to exactly what I was thinking.”

Cuomo also has a new album, Alone 3 scheduled for March release. This volume of the Alone series will focus on outtakes from the Pinkerton sessions, because, you know, timing is everything.
